Why fried-to-order beats a buffet
A big takeaway order arrives late and lukewarm. The van cooks on site. Compared with a sit-down meal, a fish and chip van is frequently good value, because it needs no kitchen and no crockery hire. We’ll send you a quote.

Corporate fish and chip catering in Kempshott, fried fresh
We park in your car park, yard or forecourt, so staff do not have to go anywhere. For leaving dos and thank-you lunches for the team, we can cook mushy peas, pie and chips and sausage and chips.

What else we do in Kempshott
DIY versus a fish and chip van
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. A van is designed for exactly this.
If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For a crowd, a van is typically simpler.

Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it is lovely with a pie.
Sausage and chips
Sausage and chips is the go-to for anyone who isn’t a fish fan.
How it works
Your timings come first. If things run late, we hold off cooking until you’re ready, so nothing is cooked before it is needed. For a staff lunch in Kempshott, daylight isn’t an issue, but a winter evening event is dark by about 4:00pm, so evening events need a lit spot. A summer after-work event has daylight until about 9:25pm.

- We check access for the van and quote.
- We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.

Kempshott questions
What’s the nearest station to Kempshott?
Basingstoke station, about 2.8 miles north-east of the centre.
Is Kempshott close to London?
Roughly 48 miles from the centre of London, and well within our area.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a picture.
When should we book?
As early as you can, especially for summer weekends and December. Even at short notice, it is worth asking.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the fryers are inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
How do you handle allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we’ll tell you what’s in each item.
Do you have a kids’ option?
Yes, children are easy to cater for. Tell us how many children, and we will plan for them.
What areas do you cover?
We take the van across London and the South East, including Hampshire. See all areas.
